Sommario/riassunto

Integration politics in the Netherlands has changed dramatically



between 1990 and 2005. Whereas ethnic and religious differences were hitherto pacified through accommodation, a new and increasingly powerful current in Dutch politics problematizes-the presence of minorities. This development represents a challenge to sociologists and political scientists: how to map and explain drastic changes? Arguing that extant approaches are better at explaining continuity than change,-this book-develops a distinct approach to the study of dynamic power relations to understand drastic transformations in the national debate as well as urban governance.

Sommario/riassunto

This statistics book is designed for use with the OpenStat statistics program, an open-source software developed by William Miller. This book and the corresponding free program covers a broad spectrum of statistical theory and techniques. OpenStat users are researchers and students in the social sciences, education, psychology, nursing and medicine who benefit from the hands on approach to Statistics. During and upon completion of courses in Statistics or measurement, students and future researchers need a low cost computer program available to them, and OpenStat fills this void. The software is used in Statistics courses around the world with over 50,000 downloads per year. Also available is a user’s manual that covers applications of the OpenStat software, including measurement, ANOVA, regression analyses, simulation, product-moment and partial correlations, and logistic regression. This book and the companion User’s Manual are important learning tools that explain the statistics behind the many analyses possible with the program and demonstrate these analyses.  .
